I'm using Microsoft Office 2002 under wine. According to the instructions here:

...I've enabled font anti-aliasing, and it does work for fonts above a
particular point size. However, it seems to turn itself off below a
certain size. How can I configure the minimum font size at which to
allow anti-aliasing?
Try changing the dpi in winecfg.
Heh. Well, that seems to work, in that 10pt fonts are now
anti-aliased, except it happens because my 10pt fonts are much bigger
than before :) That's not quite what I was looking for.
It seems like the anti-alias feature is disabled based on the *pixel*
size of the font?

I am not sure if this is the case here, but often the fonts themselves
actually set a minimum size for anti-aliasing. The font designer
decides at what point the anti-aliasing would degrade the usability of
the glyphs and turns it off. I know this is the case with many Asian
fonts.
Have you tried with other fonts? Maybe you need to find a small
character font designed for point sizes 10 and below.
